How many solutions does \(\sin(x) = 2\) has?

I was studying roots of unity, de moivres theorem, Euler's formula while I was disturbed by a question that was exceedingly tough for me? It asked to calculate solution for sin x =2 ?Check out the wiki page for Euler's formula. In it the trigonometric applications section. I am getting four solution but the question shows only two of them. You can check a page to help yourself. Sin x =2 Please give an elaborate answer why can't there be four solutions?
